I just want 47 and his fetid cast and crew to pay the price we've had to endure for the last fucking decade

doesn't have a cult following. Without him, I think MAGA will fall apart. Nobody likes him at all and I don't think he can get Congress to work with him, not even the RepubliKKKans. Without Shitler, I think the coalition, such as it is, will all apart. It's already cracking.

Nobody seems to like him much, and it's likely that once President Piggy is gone (the sooner the better), the GOP will turn into something like a jar full of scorpions, with ambitious politicians trying to take Vance's presumed 2028 nomination away from him.

It can be argued that JD can't necessarily rely on Maga support like trump can. I agree with you that he's not any better.

He doesn’t have the devoted fan base. He’ll be the 21st century Gerald Ford. Except Ford was probably the last pretty decent Republican president.

Vance is an opportunist and without character, no doubt. But he doesn't have the sorcery that Trump does.
